The Palm Fiber
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
(In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful)
تَبَّتْ يَدَا أَبِي لَهَبٍ وَتَبَّ
Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he!
مَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُ مَالُهُ وَمَا كَسَبَ
No profit to him from all his wealth, and all his gains!
سَيَصْلَىٰ نَارًا ذَاتَ لَهَبٍ
Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of Blazing Flame!
وَامْرَأَتُهُ حَمَّالَةَ الْحَطَبِ
His wife shall carry the (crackling) wood - As fuel!-
فِي جِيدِهَا حَبْلٌ مِّن مَّسَدٍ
A twisted rope of palm-leaf fibre round her (own) neck!
